Print shareing



Sure, this is the printers section in smb.conf the error message is
generated when I send a ms word doc to the printer.
[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/spool/samba
        browseable = yes
# Set public = yes to allow user 'guest account' to print
        printable = yes

This is the message i get from the log file when trying to print from notpad

Can you show us the relevant sections of /etc/samba/smb.conf?

Also, what were you trying to print?  Can you print from Notepad/Wordpad?
